@matinyarare I don't know why people keep on trying to call those peaceful protests illegal and violent. No foreigners would be in those areas if the protesters wanted to be violent. And the police wouldn't even control them. So lets address the genuine concerns raised.

1/2 𝗦𝗔 𝗔𝗡𝗧𝗜 𝗠𝗜𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬 𝗟𝗔𝗪𝗙𝗨𝗟. Many people have tried to criminalize the peaceful protests against illegal migrants by March and March in South Africa over the past week. However, the only reason people have tried to criminalize them is because they were undertaken by Zulu people, whom many try to portray as savages, in the same way they have done with EFF marches. This surely is selective outrage and discrimination after white people marched with guns, blocked roads with farming implements, overturned police vehicles, and even stormed a court in Senekal, yet no one portrayed them as violent protesters, despite their history of genocide on the continent. The fact is that March and March undertook some of the most organized and disciplined marches we have seen in South Africa, despite the crowds having the propensity to become violent. I do understand the negative historical context of Zulu men dressed in traditional ensembles, bearing traditional weapons, and visiting pogroms upon fellow blacks. However, these protests were peaceful and carried out with shocking military precision and discipline that prevented violence. The groups were clearly armed and bellicose, but they did not resort to violence. Clearly they understood that violence would dilute their message by recreating a July 2021 situation where KZN sparked riots that led the state, private security companies, white and Indian citizens to use violence against poor black people, to restore order. The leaders of these marches—Jaunita Ngobese of March and March, Ngizwe Mchunu, and Phakelumthakathi—gained my respect because of the discipline, organization, and clarity of purpose they displayed. Their message was also clear: we don’t want illegal immigrants. Could the same group become violent in future? No one knows, but they surely cannot be denied their right to protest, on the fear that they might become violent, yet they weren’t now. Of the people I saw being beaten, the majority were overzealous local protesters who fell out of line trying to be violence, which the organizers and marchers clearly were not going to tolerate. Once in a while, we saw the occasional migrant who remained on the streets as the protesters passed being manhandled and chased away, because the organizers did not want combustible contact between locals and migrants. I might not agree with these misdemeanors but they kept the protests peaceful. I also detest the notion that Africans are illegal immigrants in Africa, but according to the colonial laws adopted by South Africa and all African countries, anyone entering a country without proper documentation is designated an illegal immigrant. In Zimbabwe, our government regularly arrests and parades illegal immigrants from Africans. So these South Africans are marching for a valid cause within the confines of the dehumanizing colonial laws we chose in Africa. We may speculate that the marches were sponsored, but that would just be deflecting and minimizing the grievances of South Africans. These protests carry even more meaning for me when considering that the majority of migrants in South Africa (43%), are from Zimbabwe according to the last census. Many were displaced by 24 years of illegal western sanctions, but we also have to admit that many of the refugees did not apply for asylum which makes them illegal migrant according to South African law. We may debate whether that designation is aligned with peremptory human rights law or the Refugee Convention, but there is little valid excuse for our people not applying for asylum and regularization. Another issue is on April 2024, my organization ZASM successfully removed sanctions on Zimbabwe. As a result, Zimbabwe has become the fastest-growing economy in SADC over the past two years, and some Zimbabweans have begun returning home. However more still needs to be done for us to rebuild Zimbabwe to a point where we…

@_theelion @HermanMashaba @pmcafrica Everyone there is legal

@HermanMashaba @pmcafrica Did you see how multicultural it is in London you xenophobic piece of shit

It is always such a huge pleasure to be in London and get an opportunity to have this experience. EUFA Champion League Semi Final- Arsenal and Atletico Madrid. HT

@Sinawo_Thambo November is coming, a lot of ur comrades will be jobless

Ngizwe Mchunu is saying the nonsense he is saying to gain fame. This is the problem of people being in contempt of court without consequences. Attention seekers have witnessed the likes of Musa Khawula be in contempt of court without consequence, so slander has become a revenue generation mechanism. The courts under Chief Justice Mandisa Maya are slowly losing their teeth and lawlessness is prevailing. It begins at the 514-day delay on Phala Phala. Now it’s just anarchy because the example is that the courts have no teeth unless it’s a vendetta politically against Malema.

@I_am_Munaa Legally so

You guys forget that there’s other South Africans living and working in other African countries neh?

@NNyashaYessur Never seen people who hate their country like Zimbabweans

If you are a Zimbabwean living in Durban its high time you consider moving to Capetown, George or Paarl were there are more civilized people. Zero xenophobic attacks

@MmusiMaimane @SAPoliceService I now understand why you were a failed experiment under DA

They must be arrested @SAPoliceService we cannot have self appointed people checking documents and beating people up. Two wrongs do not make a right, if that man is using fraudulent documents, he must be reported to the police. They will make the determination with @HomeAffairsSA

@MmusiMaimane @RealMbombo @SAPoliceService Have you made such noise when they sell fake products and crossing borders illegally or destroying public infrastructure?

@RealMbombo @SAPoliceService The police should do their job, those who want to help the police should become police reservists. You can’t just buy a whip and make yourself a police officer.

@MmusiMaimane @McKay_Dingis024 @SAPoliceService No wonder they called a failed experiment, indeed you a big failure. Your Bosa won't make it to the next election I can tell

@McKay_Dingis024 @SAPoliceService Investigate everyone defending these criminals. We cannot solve one crime by multiplication of criminals. Assault is a crime, checking documents without authorisation is a crime, closing a business is a crime.

@MmusiMaimane @SAPoliceService Do you condemn lawlessness by illegal foreigners though? Indeed almost all politicians are the same.

@Olivia_LaGrange Why not dare sanctions SA as a whole, they know their economy will collapse

The ANC is BEGGING to be sanctioned

@RenaldoGouws Most of them would collapse if we took away our resources and personnel so you can go to hell

The USA has pumped hundreds of Billions of Rands into South Africa, has created hundreds of thousands if not millions, of jobs... and you think we are owed anything by them. What have Russia, China or Iran done for South Africa besides hijacking our markets by flooding their products? This is why your show got cancelled.

@ErnstRoets Lol what will they do about it, invade SA

There are hardly any news reports about this. This is why we plan on taking 3000 white crosses to Washington, to make sure that farm murders are unignorable.

@elonmusk How many must be raped by you

How many more children must die before action is taken? Enough is enough. Act now.

@SAHRCommission And you said nothing about her saying that the constitution refers to SA citizens when it says the country belongs to all those who live in it

Migrants have become scapegoats for governments’ failures - Dr Naledi Pandor

@philcraig2 So you allowed to speak for others but he can't, such hypocrisy, we stay with white farmers and their lives continue as normal, they don't give a shit about your so called white persecution

Here's the thing Max - you can and should speak for yourself, but you can't speak for the majority of Afrikaners I'd wager an awful lot of money that the majority of Afrikaners feel betrayed and that the Bill of Rights is not protecting them (because the ConCourt is compromised)

@ErnstRoets U r funny, USA has extended the invitation a d yet cant take the offer

Max, if you are satisfied with your freedom, then I encourage you to soak it up and relish in the state of affairs. I'm not satisfied and will keep advocating for more freedom. And I know I speak for more people than you.

@Rolandschoeman @LeratoPillayZA USA is the biggest terrorist

@Butanahlayisani @LeratoPillayZA So you also support a terrorist government guilty of murdering their citizens. You’ve been exposed as well settler

Israel has launched another strike in Iran. This looks like another Gaza loading. 🚨7th October - Hamas struck first, now - I don’t know what is Israel “defending” themselves from, knowing they started this. No Israeli citizens are held hostage in Iran.

@Rolandschoeman @LeratoPillayZA Heal

@LeratoPillayZA You’ve been silent on the mass murder of Iranians by a terrorist regime. It’s clear who you support.

@SandileMakeba Keep SADC out of it because some government entities understand their role in building stadiums and are doing it every year.

This stadium with 15,000 seats belongs to a regular black Zimbabwean man who built it from scratch without government assistance or a tender. He is the first black man in SADC to build a stadium capable of hosting international matches, showcasing Zimbabwe's black empowerment.

@PhumlaniMMajozi They are harboring American soldiers so they become legitimate targets

Why is Iran attacking the UAE? To South African supporters of Iran: Do you see what this Iranian regime is? Stop supporting it! Stop supporting terror! #iran #geopolitics
